Banana Nutella Folded Tortilla (Printer-friendly)

A quick sweet treat with warm Nutella, ripe bananas, and crispy folded tortillas in under 10 minutes.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main

01 - 2 large flour tortillas
02 - 4 tablespoons Nutella or chocolate-hazelnut spread
03 - 2 medium ripe bananas, sliced
04 - 2 tablespoons chopped hazelnuts (optional)
05 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter for frying

→ Garnish

06 - Powdered sugar for dusting
07 - Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to serve

# How to Make It:

01 - Place one flour tortilla flat on a cutting board and make a single cut from the center to the edge, dividing it into four quarters.
02 - Spread 2 tablespoons Nutella on the first quarter, add half the banana slices on the second quarter, sprinkle 1 tablespoon chopped hazelnuts on the third quarter, and leave the fourth quarter plain or add a little extra Nutella as preferred.
03 - Starting at the cut edge, fold the Nutella quarter over the banana quarter, then fold over the hazelnut quarter, and finally fold over the remaining quarter to create a compact triangular wrap.
04 - Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
05 - Melt unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the folded wraps 1 to 2 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and crisp.
06 - Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar and topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent and complicated but you genuinely make it in less time than it takes to order delivery.
  • The contrast between crispy tortilla edges and warm, melted Nutella hits different than eating them separately.
  • You can make it with almost nothing in your kitchen and still feel like you pulled off something special.
02 -
  • The butter matters—don't try to fry these dry or they'll just warm up and stay soft instead of getting that golden, crispy exterior that makes them worth the effort.
  • Room temperature tortillas fold without cracking, but if yours are cold, give them thirty seconds in a dry skillet first to loosen them up.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan and flip them only once or the filling will start leaking out and you'll have a mess that tastes good but looks rough.
03 -
  • If your tortillas crack when you fold them, they were too cold or too dry—let them sit at room temperature and they'll become pliable again.
  • Medium heat is your friend here; high heat will burn the outside before the inside gets warm, and low heat just makes them sit there getting greasy instead of crispy.
